Answer

Answer:

B. $495

Explanation:

Step1: Calculate cost after deductible

$1300 - 150=1150$

Step2: Find Javier's share of remaining cost

Javier pays $100%-70% = 30%$ of remaining cost. So $0.3\times1150 = 345$

Step3: Calculate total Javier pays

Add deductible to his share of remaining cost. $150+345 = 495$
